THE SIOUX RESERVATION.

The following petition from the Dakota
Legislature has been placed before the
United States Senate:
To the Honorable, the Congress of tho
United States: The Legislative Assembly Of
the Territory of Dakota respectfully repre-
sents that the people of this Territory earnestly
desire the passage of the bill known as the
resentatives Of the United States for the OPEN
Territory of Dakota. That we believe that
such On act would result in justice to all per-
sons, and the following are some of the rea-
sons therefor: That the reservation separates
the eastern portion of the Territory, with it's
large population, but without coal or
wood, from the western, or Black
Hills portion, which is supplied with
wood and coal; that the opening of
this reservation would give more direct and
much shorter route between the people i'll the
eastern part of the Territory and the forest
and coal fields of the Black Hills and Mon
tana, thereby, as we believe, giving us cheaper
fuel which our people very much need. This
reservation il composed almost entirely of
prairie land, the wild grasses of which mature
early in the crop season and liz allowed to burn
off early every year, tending much toward the
scarcity of rainfall and increase of hot winds,
which have so often proved disastrous to our
agricultural interests in the eastern portion OF
the Territory, and particularly to that part ly-
ing near the reservation. That we believe that
the Indian now occupying this reservation
would be bettered in his condition by proper
and iudiciOus use of the revenue to be derived
from these land.
Wessington Springs herald. (Wessington Springs, Aurora County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-1891, 1887-02-11
VALIDITY OF FINAL RECEIPTS.

In his decision in reference to the valid
ity OF final receipts in land cases, Judge
Trip reaches the following conclusion:
The question will no doubt ere long
reach the Supreme Court OF the United
States, when the precise question here in
volved will be set at rest; but upon the au-
thorities, as the question has so far been
determined by the Supreme Court of the
United States and the Supreme Courts of
the States and Territories, as we'll as by
reason and analogy, 1 am clearly of the
opinion that the supervisory and appellate
powers vested in the Secretary of the Inte-
rior and the Commissioner of the General
Land Office, under his direction, give
them the right to examine all acts of the
Register and Receiver in matters OF fact
left to the determination of the local Off
GERS. The jurisdiction of the Secretary and
Commissioner may be exercised by appeal
and re- examination of the facts them
selves, or by examination of their action and
requiring them again to examine the ques-
tons of fact involved, and in all cases
to supervise the purely administrative
or executive acts of the local officers. The
power of supervision given the Secretary
and Commissioner is q general one-a
supervision of oil the acts of the Register
ana heCclVoEs 4ucIo 40 ~ CASCPSAVh AAN0o
in the matter of the issuing of final certii-
cate, and if the position here contended for
be the correct one to-wit: That the Com
missioner must issue patent ut once upon
the presentation of the certificate, and that
the issue of certificate would conclude all
inquiry into the matters settled by its issue,
then it would conclude all supervision by
the superior officers, and on that reasoning
the patent might as we'll issue by the local
as by the supervising officers. I am led to
adopt the contrary of this reasoning, be-
sides any other view would lead to hope.
less conflict between the Department and
the Courts. Our calendars would be
crowded with land contests, and the action
of the Department would be indefinitely
postponed. The only true doctrine, in my
opinion, is that announced by the Supreme
Court, that the jurisdiction Of the Court
commences when that of the Department
ceases. and that until the patent issues,
and while the matter is still pending before
the Department, the question is not one OF
private right upon which the Courts have
bower to act. 1t follows that the demurrer
must be overruled. !
